A system, according to the present invention, provides temporary facsimile services to facsimile machines provided in hotel rooms. The system in- cludes an intermediary having a host of direct in-dial telephone numbers which can be selective- ly activated and assigned to any one facsimile machine of a plu- rality of facsimile machines. The facsimile machines can be selectively authorized by assign- ing thereto for a temporary pe- riod a direct in-dial telephone number from the host of direct in-dial numbers of the interme- diary. The intermediary acti- vates the direct in-dial number whereafter the authorized facsi- mile machine is capable of re- ceiving transmissions sent to the direct in-dial telephone number via the intermediary. The system maintains the direct in-dial number activated until the expiry of the temporary period and thereafter deactivates the direct in-dial number. The direct in-dial number is maintained deactivated for a down period of time whereby any facsimile transmissions sent to the direct in-dial num- ber during the down period of time is not received. In this way, provision is made not to receive any transmissions to the direct in-dial number during any down period whereby the guest is ensured transmissions destined for the particular guest are not re- ceived immediately after his departure from the hotel.
